Keynote

Conquer the Generosity Crisis Through Radical Connection

The number of Americans making charitable gifts has reached an all-time low and statistics indicate the percentages of people giving to charity annually could decline into the single digits within 49 years.

This keynote will provide concrete evidence around the changing definition of generosity, shedding light on the unprecedented competition for connection facing modern nonprofit organizations.  To this end, nonprofits must develop a renewed appreciation for connection by learning how to break through the digital noise of everyday life.  Using current data and analysis, attendees will learn the importance of measuring and prioritizing connection as well as which technologies can help them to work smarter, not harder to help overcome the competition for connection.

Your Story is Worthy Too

We're often so focused on sharing our organization's mission that we forget the magic of sharing our own stories. How do we release our internal self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and comparison mentality to grow visibility for our personal brands and thought leadership? 

Believing that your story is worthy transforms your posture in all circumstances. 

Through a series of comedic stories, Dana will share hard-won personal branding lessons that will help you gain credibility and be recognized as a thought leader in your industry.
